Inaugural Ugly Sweater Contest - Judging starts Monday, December 8th at 3pm!

The Inaugural Ugly Sweater Contest

Hosted by the Champlain College Library

In-person competition: Monday, December 8th, 2014 3:00-3:45pm, outside of the Tower Room on the 1st floor

If you can’t make it, compete online! Submit a photo of you in your ugly sweater by tweeting @champlib with #champsweater or post to our Champlain College Library Facebook page with #champsweater! Deadline is Sunday, December 7th at 5pm in order to be included in the slideshow for People’s Choice.

Eligibility: All members of the Champlain College community – students, staff, and faculty alike!

Rules: You must wear a sweater, sweatshirt, or sweater vest. Turtlenecks and long or short-sleeved t-shirts will not be accepted. You may wear such items underneath an ugly sweater/sweatshirt/vest. You may add to or alter your ugly sweater – lights, noisemakers, etc. are all fair game! However, accessories like hats, jewelry or other festive attire will not be considered. An item must be attached to your ugly sweater for eligibility.
You need not be present to win, but in-person participation is encouraged! Winners will be announced in the following categories:
  • General: The Ugliest of All
  • Holiday: Christmas, Halloween, Valentine's Day - you get the picture!
  • People's Choice: Voting for all entries received online and those present onsite will take place in person from 3 to 3:30.
Prizes: We’re offering small gift certificates to several downtown businesses – and of course, bragging rights.

Come for study break goodies and hot cocoa and cider. Take a few minutes to relax, have a laugh, and recharge before diving back into your finals week.

Your humble judges are Andy Burkhardt, Joanna Jordan, and Lindsey Rae (and yes, we’re ineligible, but we just may wear our own ugly sweaters in solidarity!).
